The beginning of Meiman is a Zanpakuto

,!

Located in San Diego on the west coast, outside a house near the port.

Kuaiyin, who had a messy head of silver-gray medium-long hair, straightened his appearance with his hands, trying to make himself look neater. Then he took a deep breath and reached out to ring the doorbell.

However, before his finger touched the doorbell, the door slowly opened.

It seemed that the owner of this house had known for a long time that he would come.

Quicksilver took another deep breath, then stepped into the house. After walking through the entrance hall, he came to the living room and met the target of his trip, the mysterious man who had helped them.

"Sir, I would like to ask you... to help the mutants!"

This was the third time they met. Kuaiyin looked at the mysterious man with a trace of respect and awe on his face.

"Who asked you to come?"

Lord held a cup of freshly brewed coffee and sat on the bench with his legs crossed.

"It's...the professor asked me to come."

Quicksilver, who was well aware of the terrifying nature of this man, seemed very reserved when facing him again, his Adam's apple rising and falling as he swallowed saliva.

"Aren't mutants pretty good?"

Lord looked at him with a half-smile and said: "The five Phoenix Apostles, how majestic they are. In less than a month, they solved your problems and made the world so beautiful."

"No, sir, you should know that that's not true!"

Kuaiyin shook his head, showing a hint of fear, and said: "Since they appeared, everything has changed..."

Since the arrival of the Phoenix Apostle, everything has changed.

The situation in the entire world has undergone earth-shaking changes in less than fifteen days.

The first targets of the mutants were the Avengers and the Illuminati. In a very short period of time, they were completely defeated by the five apostles of the Phoenix who suddenly descended on them. Only a few of them were able to escape.

In the next few days, the five Phoenix Apostles controlled the entire planet with dictatorial rule.

Military, political, educational, economic, construction, etc. All powers such as these are forcibly controlled by the Five Apostles of the Phoenix, and a brand new X-Men and the World's Supreme Council have been formed to decide all human affairs.

Just as the Avengers treated mutants before,

Now everything has been turned upside down.

The Avengers, who used to be worshiped by the public, have now become street rats that everyone shouts and beats. They are the demons that cause wars, the villains who control people's reason and public opinion, and the source of all disasters.

From hero to villain, it only takes a few days.

Most ordinary people, under the bombardment of information from social media, the media, and politics, have turned their hatred towards the former heroes, accusing, cursing, and cursing these executioners.

As for mutants, they have become innocent victims under the deliberate guidance of the media.

Just like the Jews during World War II, they control the media and have the right to speak. They constantly complain about the torture they suffered in the past, turning the Avengers and the Illuminati into a new evil.

And all these achievements are based on the power of the Phoenix.

Although the people are ignorant, they will not obey the leadership of a group of mutants. The most fundamental reason is that they have brought about changes!

Let the desert grow dense green forests and provide inexhaustible energy. There will be no more wars in the world, and even criminal incidents will be compressed to the extreme. A country with no worries about food and clothing, all living beings are equal, and only need to enjoy themselves.

Perfect world.

Everything is the power of the Phoenix.

The five Phoenix Apostles joined forces to create a utopia that only existed in ideals.

They did it, and it can even be said to be very successful.

However, all of this is based on the power of the Phoenix.

Kuaiyin, who understands the dangers of the Phoenix Power, is fully aware of the horror of this power. Everything that seems beautiful in front of him is just the moon in the mirror, and may be burned up by the Phoenix's flames at any time and turned into ashes.

A pile of ruins.

"Isn't this...what you want?"

Lord picked up the coffee cup, which was his favorite latte, took a sip, turned to stare out the window, and chuckled: "In a society where mutants are superior, they will no longer be looked down upon and discriminated against, let alone

A perfect world where you are worried about being hunted."

Hearing this, Kuaiyin fell silent, and a trace of confusion flashed across his face.

He doesn't know if this world is really perfect, but what his father and professor once wanted was definitely not such a world. It was full of hypocrisy and deception, and they achieved a 'dream'-like world with the help of another kind of power.

"No...I don't know if what they did is right."

Quicksilver clenched his fists, his young face full of self-doubt: "But... I don't think this is the path for mutants. We can't pin everything on the Phoenix Force.

On your body!"

It can be seen that he does not approve of the actions of the Five Phoenix Apostles.

Lord can understand this. After all, everything created by the Five Apostles is based on the power of the Phoenix. However, this power is a double-edged sword and can easily harm the user in the future.

But the problem lies precisely here, Phoenix Force is not a long-term plan.

If one day, when the mutants no longer possess the Phoenix, lose the infinite energy to win over people's hearts, and lose the power to suppress everything, then what awaits them will be a counterattack from mankind.

The problem of mutants has not been solved, it just exists in a different form.

"Since he knows the reason, why doesn't he solve it himself?" Luo De said calmly.

"Professor... there is no way to solve it." Kuaiyin's eyes darkened and he gritted his teeth and said: "The five Phoenix Apostles, they have all been affected. They no longer listen to the professor's words and insist on going their own way and transforming according to their own will.

this world.”

"They even... used cruel methods to suppress their fellow X-Men!"

"Now, no one can contain the five apostles!"

Professor x saw the key point, but...he was unable to change it.

Today's Five Phoenix Apostles are no longer the students they were back then, but dictators with huge power in their hands.

Not only against humans, but also against mutants, they also adopted cruel methods.

"The professor asked me to come and ask you to help us!"

Kuaiyin raised his head, looking expectantly at the mysterious man in front of him, and begged: "He said that only you can change everything. Please...end the rule of the Five Phoenix Apostles!"

The Five Apostles of the Phoenix did not create a better world, but instead led mutants into a deeper abyss.

Professor

"Sorry, Pietro."

Lord put down the coffee cup, folded his hands on his lap, and said calmly: "I can't agree to your request. This is a conflict between mutants and humans. It should be resolved by you yourself, rather than coming to me for help.

."

Kuaiyin's lips twitched, but in the end he lowered his head in pain, gritted his teeth and said, "I understand what you mean, sir."

In fact, the professor gave me his blessing before I came here, so don’t expect too much.

Being rejected now is just a result that was expected long ago.

"Sorry to bother you, sir."

Kuaiyin bowed deeply and said sincerely: "Thank you for taking me in and teaching me knowledge. Whether you admit it or not, I respect you very much. You will always be mine."

Teacher, I wish you good health, I... will go back first."

Having said that, Kuaiyin didn't intend to stay any longer and turned around to leave.

He was going to find another person, Utu, who was called the "Observer" by the professor, from where he might be able to get new revelations.

"The starry sky is pretty tonight, don't forget to take a look."

Just as Quicksilver half stepped out of the threshold, Lord's voice came from behind.

"Starry sky?"

Kuaiyin was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around and wanted to ask why, he found that the entire house was missing.

He was left alone, standing by the empty harbor, and the words he just said appeared in his mind involuntarily.

"Sir, do you mean...let me watch the stars?"

Kuaiyin raised his head in confusion, stared at the dark night sky, and muttered to himself.
